Cookies From Scratch

I like to cook and I love cookies, So it was off to the store for flour I bought the cheapest flour I saw I'll have cookies within the hour! I made dough just as the recipe said Who can make cookies? I know I can! But when I pulled them from the oven It was one cookie the size of the pan! I broke off a piece to try it out It was grainy I thought, "What's the deal?" When I looked at the flour bag again, The label clearly said, "White corn meal"

Hah, love the picture and line "I don't always bake cookies-" just like the commercials! (Oh, and the poem was funny, too - I've got one called 'The Last Cookie' if you're in a cookie mood!)

I will definitely check that one out. I'm almost always in a cookie mood if I'm honest. Thanks for commenting........pat

I'm not sure about that. The chocolate chips threw it off quite a bit!.............80)

Thank you so much Line, but unfortunately I have to go to detention now. Sometimes I'm a bad boy. (Don't tell anyone though)............80)
